The Enix merger had nothing to do with the quality of the games. Enix people do not work on Square games, Square does not work on Enix games. And in fact, except for Before Crisis, none of the games have been released after the merge (except for X-2, which was released not long after the merger... after the game was pretty much done). It's not Enix's fault in the least. Enix has just become a scapegoat for fans who cant admit that Square isnt perfect.
